    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, we are addressing that, especially in the review of our laws. We have discovered that some prospecting companies have truly overstayed. There is a limitation in the law and we do not allow them to do that. Some do the prospecting and come back and reapply. If they qualify for reapplication they can extend the exploration preiod. What we are trying to avoid more than anything else is a company sliding from prospecting to mining without our knowledge. That is what we are watching more than anything else right now. We have our officers on the ground making sure that they do not slide from exploration or prospecting to mining. In the new law it is going to be very categorical that if you cannot keep to whatever period this Parliament is going to approve, you will be closed down and somebody else will be allowed to take over. We are not going to allow people to hold land. The old law also limits to the size of the area that one can be given."
